Yesterday, a seven-day long, women championship has begun in Belgrade, Serbia. The youth tournament is open to players aged 18 years old and under, and the five continents are represented in the competition.

The event is taking place at the Sports Center “Milan Gale Muskatirovic”.

A set of amended rules proposed by the FINA Technical Water Polo Committee (TWPC) and discussed at the FINA World Water Polo Conference organised in Budapest in April 2018 will continue to be tested at this event as well as at the FINA Women’s World Cup in Surgut (RUS, September 4-9, 2018) and the FINA Men’s World Cup in Berlin (GER, September 11-16, 2018), to be then presented to the Extraordinary Water Polo Congress in Hangzhou, China, on December 10, 2018.
